IFM’s Chief Economist, Alex Joiner, features in our Monthly Economic Update video discussing recent key developments in economies and markets globally.

In this May 2021 edition, Alex discusses the “growth pulse” of the global economy in Q1, contrasting the weakness in Europe with strength in the US and parts of Asia. He also explains the on-going importance of stimulatory fiscal policy to underpin the global economic recovery, citing the recent Australian Federal Budget as an example.
